Video loading slowdown

So recently, and without any known reason, all the video sites that I am used to watching (such as youtube, IGN, etc) have all started to load their videos extremely slowly for me. It happened just a few days ago in the middle of the day, one video didnt want to load and so i tried turning off HD and it still wouldnt load. Then I found it to happen to more and more videos. It doesnt happen with all of them, but it is the majority of them and it is fairly random. Here are the things I have tried to attempt to solve the problem.

1) Cleared all cache and cookies/history from my browsers
2) Tested internet connection through multiple test sites and came out with above my normal connection speed (indicating no problem).
3) Called my ISP to see if they were working on anything (maybe that was causing intermittent video lags?) and they were not.
4) Reset my router
5) Reset my modem
6) Disabled all anti-virus/firewall/security settings
7) Scanned for viruses, spyware, and external connections

So... what the hell do I do now to try and fix this?
